He has worked in a number of international regions and markets and also supported international recruitment throughout his career.

A man of many talents, he is also a writer, playwright and theatre director, with a number of books published and various theatre and radio drama credits to his name. His debut novel, Vanished: The Mysterious Disappearance of Mustafa Ouda was published in 2015, and The Shroud Maker, both written and directed by Masoud is currently appearing on stage at the Greenwich Theatre.
